Chapter 277: The Corpse and the Cave
"What? How can this be?" The three generals set off a storm in their hearts, the prestige of the Yue family army is that their Han family army is like thunder, sighing to themselves, but at this moment, the general said that the Yue family army was completely annihilated, which ...... It's too much to accept.
Even if they have witnessed the many soldiers of the Yue family army who died in the tragic battle.
"Where's General Yue?
"Yes, I heard that General Yue has already stepped into that realm, even if he is defeated, it won't be like this, right?"
Han Zhong's eyes trembled, and he shook his head and said, "It's useless, the Blood Moon Army must have dispatched a large number of strong people, otherwise the Iron Blood City would not have been lost so quickly, and even General Yue would not be spared." ”
"What! General Yue ......"
"Don't say it, it will take some time for the soldiers to arrive here, before that, let's let the soldiers of the Yue Family Army rest in peace. Han Zhong waved his hand helplessly and walked towards the house again.
"Order!" Xie Yuan and the three of them nodded heavily, their hearts were also heavy, and they felt very uncomfortable looking at the corpse.
......
After dark, the heavy rain finally lightened, but it still kept falling, dripping in everyone's hearts, thinking that it was a heavy stone, and it was not easy at all.
Han Zhong ordered Xie Yuan and the three of them to gather all the soldiers of the Yue family army and the people who died in battle, and the corpses of the blood moon soldiers were all thrown outside the city wall of the north gate, and the corpses were in the wilderness.
This is a huge project, after all, this is more than 200,000 corpses, and the soldiers of their own side naturally have to be careful to move, and they will not be as rough as they are with the people of the Blood Moon.
Later, the soldiers of the Han family army arrived and joined them together, no one complained at all, and the soldiers who sacrificed their lives to defend their homeland were all good and worthy of everyone's respect.
The half-section of the loyal martyrs' monument made the anger in everyone's hearts rise, it was a meritorious tombstone for the soldiers who died in the glorious battle in the past, but it was ruthlessly destroyed by the enemy army of the Blood Moon, such a crime, people and gods are angry.
After a long time, the sky was about to dawn, and with the concerted efforts of all the soldiers, all the soldiers who died in the battle were finally gathered, and the other corpses were thrown out of the city.
"Soldiers of the Yue Family's Army, we will definitely avenge your revenge, go all the way!" Han Zhong held the torch all the way and said in a loud voice.
"Go all the way!" all the soldiers of the Han family army had solemn faces, saluting the sacrificed soldiers.
Han Zhong walked to the front, the torch wanted to light the firewood underneath, but he couldn't bear it, if he could, he hoped that every soldier who died in the battle could be buried in a grand ceremony and put into the ground, instead of being cremated so simply.
However, the 100,000 soldiers and people of the Yue family army, it is not realistic to do this, the time is pressing, the Blood Moon army has captured the Iron Blood City and has not been rectified and left behind, which shows that it is only a vanguard force, and the follow-up troops of the Blood Moon do not know when it will come, and they also have their own mission, so they can't be delayed for too long.
"General, light the fire, we all know your intentions, I believe they can also feel it under the nine springs, let them rest in peace quickly. Xie Yuan walked up to him and said.
Han Zhong closed his eyes, finally nodded, the torch fell, and suddenly the flames burned, covering up the soldiers lying inside, and the other soldiers also stepped forward silently, lit the firewood, and looked at the faces that were red by the flames with unbearable and firm eyes.
In a trance, they seemed to see the soldiers smiling, thanked them, and told them to take good care of this great river and mountain, and not to let the thieves trample on it.
The flames soared into the sky, engulfing the figures......
"The Blood Moon is now dispatching the vanguard troops, they will inevitably go to the next target when they conquer the Iron Blood City, and the closest to the Iron Blood City, the most strategically valuable, and located on the closest route to the Imperial City, is the Yang City. Han Zhong looked at the many soldiers below and said in a deep voice.
All the soldiers listened carefully.
"Therefore, it is very likely that they have already left for Yangcheng, but the garrison strength of Yangcheng cannot be compared with the Yuejia army, and there is no natural danger of Iron and Blood City, if this is the case, Yangcheng is in danger!" Han Zhong's words made all the soldiers look stunned.
"Please give the order to General Han. All the soldiers said in unison.
Han Zhong paused, and then changed his words and said: "We don't go to Yangcheng, the Blood Moon army marches faster than us, and sets off earlier than us, if we chase after us, we will pounce like this time, we will take a small road and bypass, and ambush them outside Yangcheng, and when the time comes, we will catch them off guard and make them disgraced!"
"But Yangcheng ......," Xie Yuan and the others worried, this was tantamount to letting Yangcheng be attacked, and it would be another tragedy at that time.
"Do you think we can change anything if we just rush to Yangcheng desperately?" Han Zhong didn't answer the rhetorical question, and without waiting for everyone to answer, he said again: "No, the Yue family army is stronger than us, and General Yue is a rare handsome and famous general, and he still can't hold the Iron Blood City that occupies the natural danger, what can Yangcheng do to resist the Blood Moon army?"
"We are going, but it is only a sacrifice in vain, our goal is to drive the invading army out of our homeland, to avenge the dead soldiers, now that the enemy is strong and weak, we must avoid fighting with them, and at the same time drag them down, as long as we wait for the arrival of the imperial army, we have the strength to contend with it. Han Zhong said in a loud voice.
When all the soldiers heard this, they all cheered up, and said in unison: "The general gives the order!"
"Okay, let's leave immediately, in order to increase the speed of the troops, each army is led by Xie Yuan, Wang Quan, Wang Sheng, Cheng Min and others to advance in detachments, and we must bypass Yangcheng within five days and rush to the front of the Blood Moon army. Han Zhong did not delay at all, and directly ordered to set off.
"Order!!"
......
A vast space world, there are mountains, rivers and lakes, but it seems extremely barren, filled with a faint atmosphere of dead silence, the mountains are all bare, there are fish and shrimp swimming in the river, but there is no vitality.
But in this uninhabited barren land, there was a person here, it was a young man, his clothes were gorgeous but he looked messy, and his face was stained with some dust, which made his originally handsome and sharp face lose some color.
Yang Yan looked at everything in front of him, frowning slightly, after he and the second prince entered the entrance of the trial land, there was an irresistible force tearing them, one person was separated, and he himself was thrown out after a whirlwind, and he came here.
And the others, not only the second prince, but all the people who participated in the trial are gone, and he is the only one who came to this strange place, and more importantly, the toss has long made him unable to discern the direction, and now he has no idea where to go.
Yang Yan didn't worry about the others, although that force was extremely powerful and irresistible, it didn't seem to hurt them, it just separated them.
In this way, this space is the so-called place of trials, and everyone else should have come here, but they are scattered to different places, and as the trials progress, they will definitely meet again.
"You have to figure out which direction to go as soon as possible. Yang Yan thought that since it was a place of trial, and the major forces attached so much importance to it, there must be a great opportunity among them, and now everyone is on the starting line, it depends on who finds it first.
"Uncle Huang is really right, this space is really collapsing, there is a breath of dead silence everywhere, even the sky is gray, wait, the breath of dead silence. Yang Yan's eyes flashed, he thought of something, he knew it in his heart, and then locked a direction.
Since it is a trial, there will definitely be death, whether it is someone who dies in distress or is killed by someone, there will be a death silence, so in other words, the more people die where the death breath is strong, and the more people who go in that direction.
Without the slightest hesitation, Yang Yan's figure flashed and ran directly towards the direction where the breath of death was the strongest, as fast as a breeze.
I don't know how long I ran, I didn't meet anyone else along the way, Yang Yan walked all the way unimpeded, but suddenly his speed slowed down, and he looked to the side, there were a few corpses there.
Without hesitation, Yang Yan leaned over directly, it was a cave mansion, and there were several corpses lying outside the cave mansion, no, to be more precise, they were already bones.
Yang Yan stretched out his hand and gently knocked on the skull of a skeleton, which was directly cracked, including the other parts of the skeleton, and the breeze blew, turning into powder in an instant, and scattered with the wind.
Yang Yan's heart moved slightly, the martial artist is based on quenching the body, and the flesh and bones of the whole body have been tempered by Yan Ke, especially the martial artist of the Qi Refining Realm, who has been nourished by the aura for a long time, and is very tough, even if he dies, his bones can exist for a long time without decaying.
The skeleton just now turned into powder at the slightest touch, either the cultivation was too weak, and even the Qi Refining Realm was far behind, or it had been a long time, and the place of trials opened every ten years, and all the geniuses of the Qi Refining Realm entered, obviously the latter was much more likely, it should have been left behind after the death of the previous trialists, it may have been decades, or even a hundred years, these are unknown.
But what is clear is that these bones were all former trialists, and they died because they were fighting for some kind of treasure, otherwise they would not have died here for no reason.
Yang Yan looked at the cave and found that there were also bones in the cave, and they were all dried bones, which confirmed his conjecture even more, the treasures in the cave were discovered by the trialists, and then a battle was triggered, and finally these bones were left.
Although he felt that there was little hope, Yang Yan still decided to go in and have a look, there were many bones along the way, some new and some old, but even the latest bones were scattered at one touch, the cave was not very big, and it didn't take long for Yang Yan to come out again.
As he expected, except for some daily necessities, there was not even a slightly valuable item in the cave, after all, the place of trials has not known how long it has existed, and there have been many trialists throughout the ages, and a cave like this that can be easily found, even if there are treasures, it has long been looted.
Just looking at the bones on the ground, none of them were from the last one or two decades, and Yang Yan was already hopeless.
But even though he didn't find any useful treasures, Yang Yan found something else.
